The triggers are bolted to the discs, they don’t impact wheel spacing etc. Hence I can’t see what the issue is ?

There must be a reason… I just can’t work it out…

Hi FE , The answer is because there is a lip protruding around the circumference of the wheel hub . The brake disc clears it but the trigger disc will not. This is what the Stu video showed. So could the ID of the trigger disc be opened up to clear the BST hub lip and still work on the wheel ? If the other distances to the sensor etc are the same. I think that might work . Let’s ask Stu.

Somehow I managed to miss Stu’s video, which now seems to have been removed ?

Just to add, Two years ago after a very long discussion with BST they told me that the carbon wheels they made for the non ABS model will NOT fit the ABS model.
BUT as I said before, I'm sure that the ABS wheels will fit the non ABS model.
This can only be verified by someone that have the two models and is willing to try swapping or by Stu that will also be needs to swap and see.
